CHICAGO pa Springfield, Illinois,
dispatch says: Many of the leading
breeders and shippers of cattle of the
central portion OF the State held a
meeting to-day, and effected a formal
organization for the purpose of com
batting the proposed change in rates
Tor the shipment of cattle from the car
lot plan to the plan of shipment By
weight. A memorial was adopted for
Transmission to the Secretary of the
Treasury, setting forth that contagious
exists to an alarm
ing extent in Scotland; that cattle from
the infected districts are allowed to
land in Canada, and as the Treasury
Department of the United States has
scheduled against the importation OF
such cattle from Scotland, they request
that the shipment of cattle from
Canada to the United States be prohib-
tied until the Dominion authorities take
such action in regard to the shipment
of cattle from Scotland as shall insure
certain immunity to the United States
from their importation through Cana.

OMAHA, June 23.-At to days session
of the Pacific Investigating Committee
Traffic Manager Kimball being asked
when he would produce the diary to re-
fresh his memory regarding the attend
ance on legislative bodies, said he did
not intend to produce it, as it was his
private diary. He asked for time to
make references.
D. S. Barriger, of the Omaha Elevator
and Grain Company. said the Union
Pacific paid his company rebates to en-
able 1t to meet competition. and be-
cause other roads paid them to its COM
petitors. The rebates had been 2 cents
per hundred at some points, and cents
at others. Of these the Union Pacific
only stood 40 per cent, the remainder
being refunded them by other roads in
combination with it. His company
had for TWO years past received a
hundred at Omaha transfer.
Kimball was recalled and testified
that Charles Francis Adams was a
stakeholder in the Argentine Smelling
Company at Kansas City, but this had
not helped that company any. They
had had occasional rebates, but did
little business with the Union Pacific.
Rebates had also been given the Boston
and Colorado Smelling Company, with
WHICH ex-senator Hill was connected,
but the latter always complained.

LONDON, June 23.-The Countess
Gampos was accompanied to Dover by
Garbocuf, her lover, and three other
gentlemen. The Campos family agent
and a French detective, armed with a
warrant, visited the hotel where the
countess was stopping, accompanied by
the Spanish consul. The consul ex-
planned to Mile. Campos how her family
felt over her abduction; that the war
rant for her arrest was to recover her
from her abductors, and restore her to
her family. She declared she wished 10
marry Garboeuf; that she would not be
prisoner against her Will. Upon this
declaration the English police refused
to sanction her arrest.

The Naval Flags.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-The contro-
yersy over the captured battle flags
caused many inquiries as to the DISPOSE
ton made of the naval flags captured
during the late civil war. It is learned
at the Navy Department that some OF
the flags captured were turned over to
the Naval Academy, and are now there.
An accidental fire in the old Navy De-
partment building, several years ago,
DESTROYED some of them.
